Liverpool just need part time footballers that can run and press. See how Henderson thrives there

Definitely. Would have been seriously annoyed if we'd signed him.

Yeah someone suggested this signing to me recently and I said no way. Not a good signing at all IMO.

Did you also see the state of him on the unveiling pictures?

Feels like 50% of people between 20 and 35 you see in city centres look like that these days.

to be this rich and to look that horrible is a travesty.

Lots of sources including Dimarzio claiming that Liverpool have had a 62M bid accepted for Allison and the player wants the move. That team's going to be scary next season with Allison, VVD, Fabinho, Keita, Salah, Firmino, Mane.

Allison is overrated. He'll need to go up a level or two to really scare me.

He's not impressed me much either, but then those who've seen him regularly say he's great so I'll let them be the judge.

Will be interesting to see what difference these signings actually make. They added a Ballon d'or contender and a £70m centre back to their ranks last season and finished 4th again, with a point less, albeit after losing Coutinho.

Keita, Fabinho and Allison should at least make them genuine title contenders. If not, you'd have to start to question Klopp.

Alisson is that good.

Would be an absolutely amazing signing, let's not kid ourselves.

So that leaves Chelsea, Sprs and us fighting for 4th this season? We should do better than Sprs, but I guess the question is which Chelsea will show up this season under Sarri. If they lose Hazard and don't replace him well, we should finish ahead of them I would think.

Chelsea will be in on Allison. Apparently Courtois to Real Madrid for €35mil on a 4 year contract.

Chelsea will now be looking for a keeper.

Only saw Allison vs Liverpool in the CL and in the World Cup. He was not amazing, not at all. Is he really good and just had bad games when I watched him ?

Looked, at the very best, average every time I've bothered to watch him.

Looks like a man who will stuff a few extra cereal bars in his sports bag in the team canteen

Courtois for 35M? Does he only have a year left on his contract? Else that’s daylight robbery.

Well, I haven’t watched him much either, but must have done something right to be worth 65M and be the Brazil keeper ahead of Ederson.
